Your development agility comes from building systems
composed of small, independent units of functionality
focused on doing one thing well. Cloud Functions lets you
build and deploy services at the level of a single function,
not at the level of entire applications, containers, or VMs.

“Using Cloud Functions is the most fun I've had developing
in years. It is the [super] glue that lets you easily build
a cost-efficient, scalable architecture that leverages the
tremendous power of Google’s big data and analytics
services. We rebuilt our core on Cloud Functions in a
matter of few days, literally, and it provided us with
massive improvements in scalability, performance, and cost,
completely removing the need for 2am support calls.”

- Brian Granatir, Engineering Team Lead, Smart Parking

“We wanted to improve developer productivity at Meetup by
integrating task management with Slack. Google Cloud
Functions made this integration as simple as publishing
a new HTTP function. We’ve now rolled the tool out across
the entire organization without ever touching a server or
VM.”

- Jose Rodriguez, Lead of Engineering Effectiveness, Meetup

“Google Cloud Functions gives us the ability to handle
massive spikes that arise when we launch new video
content—queries can rapidly go from 2 to 35 thousand per
second—and still provide near real-time analytics.
Otherwise, we would have had to overprovision during down
times and keep huge amounts of idle capacity available.”

- Bernardo Avelar, Sr. Technical Manager,
Turner Broadcasting System

“Cloud Functions brings the power of serverless architecture
to the Google Cloud Platform with a simple and intuitive
development interface. By combining the capabilities of
Cloud Firestore with Cloud Functions for Firebase, we were
able to build all the core features of our real-time
crowdsourcing mobile application without complex server-side
logic, reducing our development time in half and lowering
costs by more than 60%.”
